*ECE, embryonated chicken egg; HA, hemagglutinin; MS, Mato Grosso do Sul State; NA, neuraminidase; NS, nasal swab; pdm, pandemic; PR, Parana State; RS, Rio Grande do Sul State; SC, Santa Catarina State; –, insufficient sequence data available for analysis.
†Location of virus collection among 4 states in southern and midwestern regions Brazil provided for each sample (Figure 1).
‡Viruses are classified as related to human seasonal H1 (H1s, Figure 3), human seasonal H3 (Figure 2), or pandemic H1 (H1p) (Technical Appendix Figure 4).
§Viruses are classified as pandemic (N1p; Technical Appendix Figure 5) or 1 of the 2 clades of human seasonal N2 (a and b; Figure 4).
¶Polymerase basic 2, polymerase basic 1, polymerase acidic, nucleoprotein, and nonstructural.
#Sequencing was performed directly from the original lung sample for A/wild boar/Brazil/214-11-13D/2011/H1N2.
